This Blount Bullock was a son of “Balaam” Bullock who I believe is descended from my Bullock family line that originated in the 1600’s in old Surry/Sussex County, VA. Balaam Bullock lived his adult life in Edgecombe County dying there ca 1822. His estate was administered by a David Bullock. I’d very much like to correspond with any descendants of, or anyone else familiar with, this Balaam Bullock – especially any male Bullock descendants. Please contact me charlesbullock42@gmail.com

I am a Bullock decendent and I see you mention a David Bullock. My 4Great Grandfather is a David Bullock. Our information stops at his son, my 3Great-Grandfather Lewis (or Louis) Bullock (b) 22 June 1872 - (d) 16 Nov 1926. Lewis Bullock's mother is known to be Wadie Hines.

I'm looking for more information on David Bullocks to find Lewis's father.

I've been researching the Bullock/Bulluck line for awhile. My husband's line comes through Balaam's brother, William Gray Bullock. I have some information on Balaam's decendents, mostly his son Bennett's family, but some on others, including some newspaper articles. Would love to Email anything I have to you.

Re:Balaam Bullock of Edgecombe County, NC

To Gedwards6682: My Bullock line comes through Balaam Bullock's son, Bennett Sr. I have considerable information on the Bennett Bullock family of Edgecombe/Wilson County, NC. I would like to compare notes.

Balaam Bullock was the son of Davie Bullock of Edgecombe County, NC (per deed behests of Davie and Y-DNA testing). Davie's father was David Bullock of Edgecombe County, NC who wrote his Will there in 1774 and died in 1782. My research indicates this line goes back to New Kent County, Virginia.

There has been much confusion about Balaam Bullock of Edgecombe County, NC because there was another Balaam Bullock living at the same time in Pitt County, NC. This Balaam Bullock was the son of Drewry Bullock. They carry a separate Y-DNA genetic signature than the Bullocks of Edgecombe County.

Re:Balaam Bullock of Edgecombe County, NC

If you will send me your email address I'll be happy to share anything I have. Since my husband's line is through Balaam's brother, William Grey Bulluck, I haven't spent as much time on your line. In the 1950's and 60's a local newspaper ran a daily column called "I'm thinking-by An Old Reporter" in which people submitted information on old families of the area and I have copies of those. I also have some information on deeds, burials, etc. for your line.
